2019 is a monumental year to Bentley Motors for two reasons – not only is the British manufacturer celebrating its centenary, but it will also reveal its first all-wheel-steering model, the redesigned from the ground up, third-generation Flying Spur.
Bentley to pull the wraps from all‑wheel‑steering Flying Spur

This electronic all-wheel-steering system promises to enhance high-speed stability, steering the rear wheels in the same direction as the fronts in order to make overtaking and lane-changes safer and easier. The system is equally helpful at low speeds, making the luxury sedan more agile around town.
As with its predecessors, the model also features all-wheel-drive, albeit switchable for the first time. While driving in standard road conditions, the car will run with rear-wheel-drive only before automatically switching back to all-wheel-drive when slip is detected.
Also new to the four-door sedan is Bentley’s Dynamic Ride, an innovative system which adjusts suspension stiffness to combat cornering forces and minimise body roll, thus improving both handling and ride comfort.
